• Referee: John Christensen

Kristian Hoydahl,Norwegian light welter with a 6-0-0 record, surprised everyone with smart half-distance boxing when his usual KO- strategy failed against the competent Italian Edoardo Diana. The Italian, one year younger and with a record of 9-1-2, was a hard infighter and may have gotten a draw from his rally in the last two rounds.
